To the friends of Zero Satori...

I don't know how many of you knew Zero Satori or were friends with him but I do know that a user by the name of Zero Satori frequented this site. He was a friend to me for nearly ten years. I was just informed today that Zero has passed on this earlier this month. He would have been 29 in March and wrote the indie comic series and RPG books for Armored Soldier Valkyrion, Starstorm, and Teraknight. He had many good times arguing with members here and would sometimes rant about the antics for weeks. He always felt that this was one of the most awesome communities on the net. This guy taught me everything I know about Neo-Geo, MVS and arcade systems and he learned it here. He always had some kind of strange reverence for this site. Thank you guys for being an influence for him. He will be sorely missed.

That's sad. I definitely recognize the name but don't think he ever argued with us.

I remember arguing with Zero. Right here. In that thread I ball-bust over his use of the term "Earthians" in Valkyrion. That's totally because I was just a little bit jealous that he was putting work into print. I didn't see eye-to-eye with him on much, and if I hadn't decided at some point to avoid internet arguments as much as possible, I probably would have argued with him a lot more than I did. But he was a really a sharp guy, and died far too young.

My condolences. I had a run in with him in the MMA thread, but other than that I remember him being non confrontational for the most part. He was one of the more enjoyable members here. I didn't even know about his comics --that's pretty cool. I'll have to check them out.

Ah what a sad thing. I liked that guy. Please send our well wishing to the friends and family.

What a long, strange trip it's been. And still we roll down this baffling road, missing those who have left us. Daisuke Jigen, Sifl, SNK4EVER, Nightmare_Tony, Boog, Zero Satori. Gone but not forgotten.

Aww, man. He was ranting about that one for a whole month. Brings back some good memories. I remember wanting to post stuff that we'd talk about on that thread but he'd have posted it first and have it written in much better words than I could ever do. Back then, that guy could write. He used to write essays for fun.

He'd get really mad when people would make fun of the term "Earthians" but at that point he had learned to shrug it off. Valkyrion was his baby. He poured everything into it. I was the artist for the majority of his works and was his girlfriend for eight years and we lived to print those books. We had no car, and all the furniture we had was stuff people were trying to get rid of. Our money that wasn't going into rent went into research (video games, books, movies), print runs and our few convention exhibits.

In the last few years he wasn't able to write as well anymore. He had lots of medical problems that he refused to address. He was a stubborn but awesome guy.

If anybody wants any back issues of his books, PM me and I'll send them if I have any. They were all small runs so they are hard to find.
